Party #1: Friends & CareBears

Gabriella celebrated her first birthday at her first party on Saturday. She was so blessed to be able to spend time with great friends. It was a Care Bear party, complete with her own CareBears for decoration! We had it at Popi's 'Life Skill Center'. We ordered pizza and kept a CareBear video running on the big screen. Noni volunteered to paint faces with cute, colorful CareBear designs. Mommy made CareBear cupcakes with 'belly badges' on top. It was lots of fun!
